Promotion officials confirmed the featherweight pairing on Thursday
following an initial report from
Newsday. UFC Fight Night takes place at the Vivint Smart Home
Arena in Salt Lake City, Utah, and is headlined by a lightweight
showdown pitting Tony
Ferguson against Michael
Chiesa.

Bermudez halted a two-fight skid in his first appearance of 2016,
as he captured a unanimous verdict over Tatsuya
Kawajiri at UFC Fight Night in Pittsburgh on Feb. 21. “The
Menace” is 8-3 during his promotional tenure, including notable
victories over Clay Guida and
Max
Holloway.

Bezerra’s most recent outing — initially a victory over Damon
Jackson at UFC Fight Night last May — was changed to a no
contest after the 32-year-old Brazilian tested positive for a
diuretic. With that victory overturned, Rony “Jason’s” last Octagon
triumph came against Steven
Siler at UFC Fight Night “Shogun vs. Henderson 2” in March
2014. He is 4-2 in the UFC overall.
